Explanation
According to the Scrum Guide, all three criteria for Sprint length are valid and apply simultaneously. A Sprint must be: (A) short enough to limit business risk and allow course correction; (B) short enough to synchronize with relevant business events and feedback cycles; and (C) no longer than one calendar month, which is the hard upper limit defined in Scrum. Because all three constraints are documented Scrum principles that apply together, 'All of these answers are correct' (D) is the right choice. No single answer alone fully captures the Scrum Guide's guidance on Sprint length.
